Does it feel like there is a disconnection between how your body looks and how your body feels? If so, you may be experiencing body dysmorphia. 

If you have IBS, you may be experiencing the flipside of this when you’re experiencing symptoms that others can’t see. 

In this episode of The Gut Show we discuss what body dysmorphia is, how to identify this in yourself, and some strategies to start implementing today!
